Isn't mod_pywebsocket a proof that it is in fact possible: <http://code.google.com/p/pywebsocket/>? I did. If you want it in the core and done in a clean manner (which is my intent), then I feel that you have to amend the draft so sharing of the port is feasible until you know the protocol is absolutely WS. Also, that implementation in mod_python doesn't meet the strictness requirements set out in the draft. So, if that is the exemplar, then it certainly just reiterates the points that Greg and I and others have been making. Their "memorizing" line hack (which enables the strictness requirements as *mandated* by the current drafts in the name of security) only works on their standalone server - not httpd. There is no way for httpd to provide that functionality - well, without violating about a billion design rules; yes, I could code something up, but I'm sure you could do nasty things to WebKit if you wanted that would never pass muster and get you laughed out of the room when you show that patch to the rest of the team... -- justin
